We may not have Paul's vision but every believer has his experience; The Lord is near in Person by his Spirit and guides our feet by providence. Chris Boraston's message on Acts 23:11-35 demonstrates how the Lord comforts Paul by his presence and confirms his promise to send him to Rome by a series of amazing providences. A conspiracy of over forty Jews threatens to kill him but Paul's nephew is providentially in the right place at the right time to overhear their plot and alert the authorities. The Roman tribune providentially beieves the boy and swiftly moves Paul under guard to Caesarea. Providentially, Governor Felix was at home, and Paul preached Christ to him and his entourage .

This 2026 New Year message on Galatians 5 was not published at the time but grows ever more relevant in the light of recent political and moral events. We review the notable decline in faithfulness to truth evident over the past five years and assert that the only truly faithful person is the biblical God who provides stability in the storms of human affairs. Even those who believe in him through Christ will be swept along by the waves of change unless they rely on the Holy Spirit's gifts of faithfulness and love to remain true to themselves and their God.

We follow the momentous battle between two edicts, Haman's and Mordecai's (Esther chapters 8 and 9). Mordecai's edict sought to cancel Haman's, which legally must be implemented in spite of Haman's death and would have seen the Jews exterminated. We saw last time that Mordecai had no option but to make his new edict take effect on the same day as Haman's prior edict. A civil war seemed unavoidable, with the Jews an easy target for their enemies. How could they survive? By the sovereign intervention of God, fear of whom paralyzed the enemy and gave the Jews an almost bloodless victory.
